Transpozícia: [+1 +2 -1 -2] *** Autor textu: Leonard Cohen *** Autor hudby: Leonard Cohen |
Intro: C
BbMany men have loved the Fbells
you Bbfastened to the Frein,
Dmand everyone who Gmwanted you
they Dmfound what they will Calways Dmwant aCgain.
EmYour beauty lost to you yourAmself
just Emas it was lost to Amthem.
Oh Ftake this longing from my Ctongue,
whatFever useless things these hands have Cdone.
FLet me see your beauty broken Cdown
Emlike you would Fdo for one you Clove.
Your body like a searchlight
my poverty revealed,
I would like to try your charity
until you cry, "Now you must try my greed."
And everything depends upon
how near you sleep to me
Just take this longing from my tongue
all the lonely things my hands have done.
Let me see your beauty broken down
like you would do for one you love.
Hungry as an archway
through which the troops have passed,
I stand in ruins behind you,
with your winter clothes, your broken sandal straps.
I love to see you naked over there
especially from the back.
Oh take this longing from my tongue,
all the useless things my hands have done,
untie for me your high blue gown,
like you would do for one that you love.
You're faithful to the better man,
I'm afraid that he left.
So let me judge your love affair
in this very room where I have sentenced mine to death.
I'll even wear these old laurel leaves
that he's shaken from his head.
Just take this longing from my tongue,
all the useless things my hands have done,
let me see your beauty broken down,
like you would do for one you love.
Like you would do for one you love.
